It's me again, the cataract question person, with a question about elective oophorectomy

[Susan Calvin]

10. I determined that Medicare and Tricare would not cover it by looking at their sites

It's possible that she could write it up so they wood cover it, but I'd be taking a chance, I think, monetarily. I'm glad you mentioned all the other things besides the surgeon, because that makes me realize that the number I came up with and put at the end of my original post is probably not the whole story. I wish I was fonder of my new gynecologist and her communication skills. I am taking her advice to have them removed under consideration, but I'm really not crazy about her and her communication skills. Possibly I should think about seeing a different one next time, but Medicare only pays for a Well Woman gynecological exam at my age every two years, and I'm trying to make a decision on this fairly soon.
